Hello there blog buddies - it's getting a bit nearer isn't it - and I will confirm that it's being cheerful (grrrrrr) that keeps me going - lol!!!!! Hi there to my new follower Supernan Sue, thank you so much for joining me in my quest to be creative - yay! By the way, there's a lot of us Sue's about!!
I thought you would be really fed-up with Christmas cards but apparently not! Several of you are still enamoured with them - it must be me then. Mine have been finished and posted - barring any I might have missed.
This is another one I made the other week and I love this little image - why do I say that ..... I wouldn't use it if I didn't would I??? I am such a numpty! I'm not sure that he looks very chuffed though - hence the title "Why do I have to carry the blinkin' tree?" I have used my very favouritest dies (at this moment in time) on this one - just because I can.

Whilst you are here, I noticed a lovely piccy on Sarn's blog (Stamping for Pleasure). She has decorated her fireplace so beautifully and her Christmas tree is amazing. I told Graham and he said "Bet you wouldn't want anyone to see our little stockings"!!! Well I am always up for a challenge so I said "Why not"!
So I have posted a piccy of our Christmas fireplace - lol. Oh bless, I have just noticed his little bald head in the mirror.
I hope you like my card - please leave me a comment if you have a little time. Don't worry if you are too busy - believe me I do understand. Thank you for visiting though, I do appreciate it. My little band of followers is growing and I am chuffed to bits. Take care during this next week and I will catch up with you soon.
Big hugs to you all.
SUE

Great card sweetie. I love this image but haven't got around to buying it. So many more on my never ending list, and they keep bringing out MORE!!! I love how you have coloured it laid it out.
ReplyDeleteI am not well at the moment as we both have gone down with the vomiting virus. I am trying to do some commenting today as yesterday I couldn't have sat up. Still not eating and very weak.
